The Formula of Love [2/?]
Title: The Formula of Love
Series: ガリレオ/Galileo
Characters: Utsumi Kaoru, Yukawa Manabu, Kusanagi Shunpei
Summary: She'd waited almost six years without much result. Another year wouldn't have made any difference. But still, one can't help wondering...
--------------
Her phone rang, almost as soon as she walked out of Haneda airport. Utsumi took out her phone to check who was calling her, and smiled when she recognised the name.
"Are you always this punctual when calling girls?... Nah, I just arrived. Don't worry about it... I can manage it by myself—you don't have to... I wanted to try giving him a surprise..."
The man on the other side of the line spoke a few more things to her before she laughed. "Ah, Kusanagi-san... don't be silly. For the past six years that man barely gave any sign that he was in any way slightly interested in me in that kind of way. How could you think this past year would have changed anything? I stopped hoping for any kinds of silly miracles..."
"Why not? Don't you have any faith in him?" Kusanagi spoke again, as Utsumi tried to stop herself from snorting out loud. "For all we know, Yukawa might have kept his feelings hidden for so long that even he himself did not realise it himself. Or maybe he did but he was just that awkward to even want to confess it to you all these years. Also, considering that you've been away this past year, something might have changed. You might even surprise yourself!"
Utsumi giggled again. "Oh, stop it. Now you're giving me too much hope."

She's not even sure what she's doing anyway, she just thought that maybe she could just... come by and said hi. Just seeing how his reaction to her returning might be. There wasn't anything more than that, really.
Though she had admit, that last conversation with Kusanagi did somewhat festered a bit of a hope in her. A bit.
And then... wild imaginations started to kick in during the taxi ride here and she had to pinch herself many times to push those silly thought away. Utsumi shook her head. All those dramas and movies she watched in the past to try to improve her grasp in English might really start to backfire on her now. Why did half of them ended up being of the romance genres? But then she probably could try to blame the choices of the shows on the new friends she met in Oklahoma...
Utsumi glanced up towards the door in front of her. The sign on top read 'Lecture Hall 3', the same one that was on the note placed in front of the door to Lab 13... informing visitors as to the current whereabout of one Yukawa Manabu.
She'd left her luggage there, not wanting to have to drag it all around the university. But now her nerves started to want to fail on her. Utsumi started to look around.
A bunch of other female students were chattering excitedly in lowered voices nearby and she could hear a dull humming of familiar voice through the door. This should be the right place.
Steeling her nerves, Utsumi grabbed the handle of the door in front of her before marching into the lecture hall that was already full of even more female students...
